    Default Spent brass

    Is spent brass from a 22 worth anything? I collect all mine and have kept it in a plastic jar.

    Thinking of just tossing it in the recycle bin, but if brass is worth something...

    I think it's just the scrap brass price at the recycle places.

    There ARE people that make their own jacketed .223 bullets from spent .22lr cases, I have a couple that a guy sent me. But spent .22 brass ain't exactly hard to find, and getting set up to swage your own is very pricey. Toss 'em in your scrap brass bucket.
